Imagine a "Humane" regenerative attention economy where our devices aren't about screen time at all, but more like a GPS-- always routing us towards more life, more connection, more common ground. The point of a GPS isn't to keep us fiddling, it's to get us to our destination.

Theresa May reiterated her ultimatum to MPs this morning: my deal, no deal or no Brexit. Now a new YouGov MRP model has put that same dilemma to the public. On first preference, Remain wins in 600 constituencies…
